Re: Jackthegiantkiller's Original Characters

Re: Jackthegiantkiller's Original Characters

Life is...complicated. I'm starting off with a new setting I call, Crashworld.

Background
30 years ago, Darkseid found a way from the 4th World into a Marvel universe where Thanos had just completed the Infinity Gauntlet. Before Thanos could don the weapon, Darkseid used the Omega Effect to destroy him, in his weakened state. Taking the Gauntlet for his own, Darkseid used its power in a cosmic ritual that combined all the super heroic universes into one, in order to more easily find the Anti-Life equation and remake all of existence in his image. This had catastrophic effects. Every version of each individual was combined into one, driving many of them mad. Each unique individual was placed on the same world...and overpopulation, combined with new diseases and natural disasters, killed billions in a very short time. That is when Darkseid struck. He rules all of known space, with only a few pockets of resistance. Apocalypse is his regent on Earth. Darkseid has not found the equation yet, but his power is already nigh infinite.

The PCs, children of legendary heroes from multiple worlds, must find a way to free the Universe before Darkseid destroys all that is.

They are based in a secret headquarters called the Cave of the Animal Gods, hidden under Wakanda...which is, itself hidden from Darkseid by Amazonian magic, Atlantean Magic, Wakandan tech, Eternal tech, and the favor of those Gods not already destroyed or blocked from Earth. The Cave is equipped with every amenity ever found in the Batcave, the X-Mansion, Avengersí Tower, and so on...except zeta tubes or other teleport tech.

Extra dimensional travel is much harder. There are no parallels to visit. Only one Earth remains. The Realms of the Gods are mostly blocked. Sadly, the Hells are all too accessible.

To eventually get to Darkseid, and fight him directly, the heroes will need mother boxes...only boom tubes can reach Apokolips, now. But how can even such powerful beings defeat a true god?
